Techcrunch asks, is Obama ready to be a two-way president?

I didn't vote for Barry mainly because it is clear that we would be subject to one party eule for at least 2 years with him at the helm.

Though I could see the benefits of him as prez otherwise. For all they have done wrong, the republicans, with control of one chamber would keep the dems from doing what they do wrong, which for a fiscal conservative like me is a lot.

Obama can easily reach out to the other half by acting like the person he ran as (a moderate and at times conservative dem - something he is not), however, he doesn't have to be too liberal with the people running the house and senate. He can let them do his dirty work.
